As summer begins to grace Chicago with longer days and warm breezes, we’re excited to unveil our Spring/Summer 2025 Menus (see them here!), now available! Rooted in tradition but inspired by the flavors of the season, these menus celebrate the best of Italian cuisine with a fresh twist—crafted with care, passion, and 85 years of hospitality behind every dish.
From vibrant starters to elegant entrées, the summer lunch and dinner menus offer something for everyone—whether you’re a long-time guest or a first-time visitor.
Seasonal Highlights Include:
Panzanella Salad – Italian bread, tomatoes, imported burrata, and fresh basil drizzled with Giachi extra virgin olive oil.
Spaghetti all’Aglione – A Tuscan favorite with house-made pasta in a garlicky tomato sauce that’s summer simplicity at its finest.
Linguine alle Vongole – House-made linguine with fresh clams in a white wine garlic sauce—light, coastal, and classic.
Colorado Lamb Chops – Double cut and flame grilled, perfect for a summer indulgence.
Branzino – Broiled with oregano, lemon, and our signature e.v.o.o., ideal for a lighter evening meal.
And, of course, our legendary steaks and chops remain center stage, char-broiled at 1400 degrees and crafted from the top 1% of USDA Prime beef.
🍹 Raise a Glass
Our new cocktail menu brings seasonal refreshment to your table. Highlights include:
The Sunset Spritz – Hendrick’s Gin, Aperol, prosecco; as stunning as a River North skyline at dusk.
Blood Orange Side Car – Remy 1738 with a citrusy punch that’s both bold and balanced.
Gene’s Punch – A house favorite with vodka, blood orange, and prosecco that screams summer celebration.
Prefer something zero-proof? Try the Lira Spritz or Sangria, both refreshing non-alcoholic options.
